Any player that commits to Bama is a coward. Agreed;.
Disagree. Why? Because Bama is stacked...those that choose to go KNOW the competition will be stiff. They have to weigh their own abilities, work ethic and talent. Are they good enough to two deep (as opposed to three, redshirting, or worse)? Are they good enough to start as freshmen? Being that elite is a heady thing. And being able to be elite and challenge for playing time immediately says a lot. It's risky, but a chance they choose to take.

It's really not enough to win a title with. Not with running a pro style offense anyways.
I think our offensive play calling needs some tweaks but I'm confident you can win a title with most offensive schemes run well. Our change just needs to come in the form of being more aggressive, the type of offense works just fine. We just need to get away from running up the middle on 8/10 first downs. But with the players we do have, and do get, we should be able to shred teams on offense. But because we waste that first down, it limits us everywhere else.

My comment wasn't serious. I was more or less being a smartass to the guy I responded to.

It's good enough to get you to the playoffs, Michigan State and Washington proved that, but don't think it's good enough to beat teams like Bama, Ohio State, Clemson and Georgia that are loaded with blue chips at every position, at least not in back to back games.

Guess you were right @Mistaken4193


That puts us up to 4 5 stars in the this class and we're favored to get two more(Dean and Pappoe) to go with a high 4 star, and it still won't be enough to get the top ranked class because Bama's class is looking like an all time great.

I heard Dean was 50/50 right now between Bama and UGA and Pappoe just recommited to AuBarn.

Its a good get. I think you guys were losing yalls startin Center and I guess he saw the opportunity to play right away. Unless yall slide Tre Hill to Center.

Gaillard is a senior, so he's gone, but Trey Hill got a lot of snaps at center, and he played pretty good there too as a true freshman, so I'd be surprised if Hill isn't the center next season, but Webb will probably be starting in 2020 after Andrew Thomas and Ben CLeveland leave.

247 has Dean as a 60-40 UGA lean over Bama, and their crystal ball has Pappoe favored to flip to UGA.

I think Bama is getting 4 more 5*.

Evan Neal- 100% on this one

Trey Sanders-95% but UGA is trying here late but dont think they have enough time.

Ishmael Sophser-70% Us and LSU but trending towards Bama

Kayvon Thibodeaux-65% our insiders have said to expect him in our class.


Then their is Nakobe Dean who our insiders say is 50/50 right now.

Yall are a lock for Sanders IMO. I think we're focusing more on getting Noah Cain, who I have my doubts about too.

You guys have got Zamir White to go with Swift next year so I guess yall are set at RB and will look to add in 2020.

James Cook too, and we did get a 4 star RB a few weeks ago.

Michigan has 23 commits, OSU has 16. So if it was purely off volume we'd be ahead of them.

The fact OSU is ahead of UM with 7 LESS RECRUITS, tells you all you need to know about current group.

3 star recruits are a dime a dozen. You get little points for them. That’s why UM isn’t ahead of OSU. By the time recruiting is done, UM will most likely end up around 15th, while OSU will be in the top 5.
